GS305E

I actually have 2 of these. One is in my computer room and allows me to plug several computers into my ethernet line at the same time and without mucking around changing cords, etc. The other one is at the cable modem input and allows me to leave my wifi router off unless I need it for something. The latter I find to be a security measure, since the wifi router is not broadcasting and can't be compromised if it's off. When the wifi router is on, the output goes into the Netgear router and then into the cable modem - without me having to mess around changing plugs and wires. These units are plug and play - they simplified everything and increased my security at the same time. I really like that it's small and as far as my internet connection is concerned, I've seen no impact at all on speeds. I do wish that the power connector was in a different location (it's on the side opposite the ethernet connectors) but that's so trivial as to be unimportant. I recommend this product heartily!

Simple, great, rugged build, and works just the way it was intended. I ran multiple speed tests and they all performed much better than the other network switches that I own. I was so pleased with it that I decided to purchase two more for my home. Great price, too. I recommend it.

I ordered this switch because all of the network ports in one section of the office were fully occupied. It was a seamless installation and everything functioned as your would expect. I plugged in my wall connection and then was able to run 3 other devices off the same original network line. I think this is great for any home network or application where you have limited space/ports. It is a sleek unit with a solid build quality.

Works great. Bridged ISP Gateway, Gateway port 1, then any other ethernet devices on open ports. Security camera system, Game consoles, Raspberry Pi for network monitoring. Fast and works flawless.

Works as it should. Simple to setup!

Low cost, reliable, fast, easy to use. So glad I've been using Netgear units like this one. Would definitely buy again and recommend to others.

I needed to wire up the house since all the kids are gaming, TVs are running, and everything else is online. I went with the NETGEAR 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Essentials Switch because Netgear is my favorite, and I’m glad I did. These switches work great—I even ran one out to the garage with a router so I can work out there and hardwired my Wi-Fi device. Connection is solid, setup was simple, and they feel reliable. For the price, these are awesome. Highly recommend if you need a dependable, no-fuss switch for home networking.

If you need one of these, you already know what it is, and what it is for. The switch worked perfectly right out of the box and, unlike some others out there, the ports are on the opposite side of the power-in jack (this is a good thing). My major complaint with all of these is the inability to dim or shut off the lights. The lights will easily light up a whole room at night. This unit is well built, super sturdy and looks like it will provide years of service. If you are someone trying to limit having EMF radiation from wireless frying you and your family 24/7 by hard wiring your devices, and your router only has one Ethernet port, this switch is a great option for you.

I am not an expert. I was looking for a switch with good performance and the ability to put the ports to sleep when there's no traffic. I read some reviews on specialized websites and trusted the brand. The price/quality ratio is good with a nice level of finish and a metal casing. I have 2 at home, one of which I have been using for several years. It's ready to use, no configuration to assign, it doesn’t heat up, and I have never had a single problem with it. An excellent product at a good price.

Appareil bien construit. Fonctionne très bien, sans problème. Répond tout à fait à mes besoins.

Compacto, discreto, fácil de instalar y muy eficiente. Vale la pena

Negrear es garantía y para poder conectar mis aparatos es la opción

Gran producto, excelente para extender conexiones de un modem/router para una sola red (No administrable ni configuracion de VLANs)
